Their Opinion of the Judgment.
Chicago, Nov Alt is settled that Louis
Lingg killed himself with dynamite bomb
and not Illuminating cap as first supposed
His cell was given thorough overhauling
to-day for the first time since the suicide and
shattered pieces of pipe were found. show
ing conclusively that Lingg had exploded
dynamite bomb in his month. One of the
pieces was over an inch long and appears to
have been torn longitudinaly from larger
piece by the explosion. The remnant is in
the possession Of Sheriff Matson. The con
dition of the walls inLingg's cell bear out the
theory of the bomb. Large pieces of solid
masonry were broken off by the force of the
missiles of which the bomb was made. How
the bomb got into his possession is mys-
tery. Suspicion was first directed to one of
the deputies ON guard, but 1t Is now no
longer thought be is in any way guilty. 1t is
generally believed that Lingg had the bomb
at the time the other four were found, and
had 1t secreted in his hair, a thing he could
very easily do as his haff was over six inches
long and very thick. In the opinion Of the
Jail officials, all the bombs were passed

monument was found.
Accepted the Regulations.
1t appears that the police authorities of
Chicago informed the committee of Anareh-
lists who applied for a burial permit for the
interment of the hanged Anarchists that they
could not have the permit at all unless they
complied with certain conditions. These
were that no part Of the funeral should take
place from public hall; that the speakers
should be brief and exceedingly circumspeet
In their remarks; that there should be no
red flags or infammatory notices. They
were also told In the plainest OF language
that IL any trouble ensued they and their
speakers would be held directly responsible.
The committee hesitated good deal over
these conditions, but finally yielded and sent
a letter to Mayor Roche offering to abide by
his instructions if they were permitted to
have procession. The Mayor replied,
naming the restrictions above stated, also
prohibiting the carrying of arms or conceal
ed weapons, and directing the route which
the procession should take. These restric-
tions were accepted by the committee.
Anarchy and Domestic Strife.
81 have no use for man who is too big
coward to make bombs to kill the police. II
you won't make bombs I'll leave you" This
was what Mrs Clara Peach of No. 1910 Van
Horne street said to her husband, Rudolph,
Sunday night At the same time, Miss
Johanna Oppitz, Rudolph's sister-in-law,
dashed bucket of water in his face, and
Old Man OppitZ joined in the melee and
caught his son-in-law by tbs neck. Rudolph
swore he would not make bombs to please
his Anarchist wife and family and that he
was law abiding citizen and no coward
nor Anarchist. He would not stand any
more abuse from them and so appeared be-.
